"I just don't think it's a good idea to legalize something that's as dangerous as drugs are," Fowler said. "How do you tell your child that something is very dangerous when the government says it's legal?"
Isn't there a right to bear arms, or is it bare arms? Anyways, arms are dangerous. I don't know about the hands and fingers. Cars are also extremely dangerous. They kill more people every year than drugs do. Get rid of bear arms/bare arms + cars, and that would take care of America's two deadliest objects, not to mention helping to take bears off the endangered list.
"I really object to having my tax money used for that," he said. "I don't think that's a legitimate function of government."
Well, it would be a lot cheaper for the government to deal with legalization issues than criminal issues. I estimated that in Canada alone, the court and prison costs would be reduced by billions.
